RE:RE:TTFOf course the goal is to increase the value if the Ruble, (which it has in the short term) but there is the other fact that the Russian treasury already has hundreds of billions in Euros that it is not being allowed to spend anyway, so why would they accept more Euros or USD? They are selling to India in rupees, China in RBY, fact is China and India have an enormous capability to supply goods to Russia. There are very few things the USA and Europe can supply that cannot be replaced, commercial aircraft is one... FOR NOW.
